Slate Digital brings to the present the future of microphones with its VMS system

Slate Digital's hybrid Virtual Microphone System is integrated by the ML-1 microphone, the ONE preamplifier and a plug-in software module.

Slate Digital VMS (Virtual Microphone System) is a hybrid system, whose brand matters for Spain and Portugal Area Sounds, using the ML-1 condenser microphone, the 'neutral' ONE preamplifier, along with the Plug-in VMS module that replicates the sound of the world's best microphones.

The VMS ML-1 is a linear response, high-definition condenser microphone, offering accurate and transparent reproduction, with flat frequency response and wide bandwidth.

An ideal device on which to capture the “coloration” sound from classic valve microphones. The proximity effect of your capsule, accurately replicates the large cardiode diaphragm classic vintage microphones.

To avoid unwanted 'coloring' of the signal when recording to the audio system, Slate Digital has created the VMS ONE, a state-of-the-art preamplifier, with high-quality analog electronics and linear sound, as a final step to ensure a cleaner signal.

The final piece of the Virtual Microphone System is the Plug-in software module that converts the ultra-clean signal from the VMS hardware into emulations of the most famous classic microphones and preamps in the history of sound.. This is achieved through complex algorithms, which are the result of an innovative physical modeling process that is ultimately assimilated by the human ear..

VMS algorithms incorporate zero latency, so real-time recording through its plug-ins allow comfortable recording and monitoring and a powerful tool in a native system.
